When David Good was a child and people asked about his mother, he'd give them an answer he knew would preclude any further questions: she died in a car crash.
In fact, his mother was alive and well, only instead of baking cookies and helping with homework, she was barefoot and mostly naked, with sticks coming out of piercings in her face, gathering grubworms and roasting boa constrictors deep in the Amazon jungle. Good's mother was never the suburban mom she tried to be. Her name is Yarima, and she is part of the stone-age Yanomami tribe from Venezuela.Culled
